Working Class Magician: Rehired

Imagine if hilarious TV shows The Office or Utopia were a live magic show – LJ is back as your Working Class Magician.

The new laws on the art of magic are taking their toll on your favourite wizards, and your seminar host LJ is here to 'safe' the day. But there’s a thorn in LJ’s side: Todd from Corporate. The self-obsessed, credit-stealing villain is determined to derail LJ’s seminar with endless red tape and absurd interruptions.

As LJ hilariously navigates ridiculous new safety protocols, like PPE for rabbits and daily wand inspections, will he outsmart bureaucracy, keep his dream job, and survive Todd’s sabotage?

Winner of the Magician's Choice Award at the Melbourne Magic Festival 2024.
